Creating an edit modal in Laravel 5

I am trying to create an edit modal for each row in the database. My page looks like this.

dashboard

When I click on the edit icon, I open a modal where a user's details can be edited. The modal looks like this.

empty modal

The modal I intend to show is like this.

modal with data filled in

My view.php

<div class="box-body">
  <table id="example2" class="table table-bordered table-hover">
    <thead>
      <tr>
        <!-- <th></th> -->
        <th>Username</th>
        <th>Contact</th>
        <th>Email</th>
        <th>Role Type</th>
        <th>Actions</th>
      </tr>
    </thead>
    <tbody>
      @foreach ($data as $datas)
        <tr>
          <td>{{ $datas->username }}</td>
          <td>{{ $datas->contact }}</td>
          <td>{{ $datas->email }}</td>
          <td>Role Type</td>
          <td>
            <div class="btn-group">

How do you activate a modal?

To trigger the modal window, you need to use a button or a link. Then include the two data-* attributes: data-toggle="modal" opens the modal window. data-target="#myModal" points to the id of the modal.

Why modal is not working in laravel?

You have several problems going on. First, you have multiple elements with the same ID, which you cannot do. The ID must be unique. Second, you are using a click action on a link element, probably triggering its default behavior.

What is a modal in laravel?

Modal helps us to work on another page without moving out of the current page, which helps not to lose sight of where we are. We are going to be using Bootstrap, Jquery, and Ajax to achieve this. Jquery and Ajax will send the URL with the id of the item we want to edit or view into the modal dynamically.

Something like this would suffice.

Note: I assume you are using bootstrap 4 for your project, although bootstrap 3 would work too, just tweak it a bit to suit your needs

$(document).ready(function() {
  /**
   * for showing edit item popup
   */

  $(document).on('click', "#edit-item", function() {
    $(this).addClass('edit-item-trigger-clicked'); //useful for identifying which trigger was clicked and consequently grab data from the correct row and not the wrong one.

    var options = {
      'backdrop': 'static'
    };
    $('#edit-modal').modal(options)
  })

  // on modal show
  $('#edit-modal').on('show.bs.modal', function() {
    var el = $(".edit-item-trigger-clicked"); // See how its usefull right here? 
    var row = el.closest(".data-row");

    // get the data
    var id = el.data('item-id');
    var name = row.children(".name").text();
    var description = row.children(".description").text();

    // fill the data in the input fields
    $("#modal-input-id").val(id);
    $("#modal-input-name").val(name);
    $("#modal-input-description").val(description);

  })

  // on modal hide
  $('#edit-modal').on('hide.bs.modal', function() {
    $('.edit-item-trigger-clicked').removeClass('edit-item-trigger-clicked')
    $("#edit-form").trigger("reset");
  })
})

Suggestion

I would recommend you to include the form in another blade view, render it with all the relevant data and then return it to the controller then show it in the modal.
